Alexander Tower ruins with panoramic views over Böckweiler

Highlight • Historical Site

The former 26.35 meter high "Böckweiler observation tower" - Alexanderturm, completed in 1893, was blown up by German pioneers in the first days of the war (on September 9th at midnight).
Many beautiful paths lead to the ruins.
